living in Stratford upon Avon I am blessed with some fantastic local Wedding & Events Venues to work in. Ettington Park has to be one of the finest & gives us photographers endless opportunities for great photos. It’s described as an opulent Gothic Revival Mansion set in 40 acres of parkland.

As always, I arrived about an hour early to scout out the building, grab some shots & prepare for the day ahead.

After this, it was time for the bridal prep so I headed over to meet Stacey & her bridesmaids. This was followed by a few fun shots of the Groom Ade & his Best Man.

Thankfully it was a beautiful calm warm sunny day as Stacey & Ade opted for an outdoor wedding ceremony taking place in the Orangery overlooking the beautiful Victorian gardens.

This was followed by a drinks reception & a few formal family photos in front of the ruined Church. Later I took the opportunity to steal the Bride & Groom away from the wedding party to take some bridal photographs of the couple around the venue.

The Long Gallery was originally the library and was the perfect setting for their lavish wedding breakfast. After the speeches, we all headed off outside again while the room was turned around for the evening party.

Many congratulations to Stacey & Ade who are very much in love & I wish you a very happy life together.

Thanks for letting me capture your big day.
